Highest rated mecha game yet
https://www.metacritic.com/game/playstation-5/armored-core-vi-fires-of-rubicon

Apparently AC6 is highest mecha game rated yet at 87 combined score, it's not getting at the 90s range yet, but I hope this means the western shill journos are warming up to mecha games.

Will anything ever be as good as Shogo: Mobile Armor Division was though?

Shogo is too much a FPS IMO.
I can name better mecha games...

Should be a good game.

I'm so glad, with this high score sales would be good too but honestly I also think they gave good score because the game come from from software.
They might give good score for ACVD if from software releases that now. I feel quite weird a mech game got good score and AC series metascore were not good for old titles.
Western audience has always hated mecha games, except Mechwarrior I guess.
I think this game is gonna sell gangbuster in Japan and Asia, not sure in the West.

Just don't ask about the storyline's canon status in regards to the source material :RoflOwlcat:.

This game is gonna sell very well

People are in love with From and riding the Elden Ring wave. They probably don’t even realize this isn’t Soulslike, they’re just gonna buy it

Which is weird, considering how MechWarrior is based on Battletech which in turn was almost entirely inspired by the late-70s and early-80s Japanese anime featuring mecha.

Oh, wait, Titanfall 2 is still higher in PS4 version at 89:
https://www.metacritic.com/game/playstation-4/titanfall-2

Why is the PS4 version rated higher than the PC version anyhow LOL?
Anyway, Titanfall 2 is more a FPS than a mech game anyway.

Genuinely no clue.
Oh well, as long as we are getting mecha, I ain't complaining.

Hope this means more Gundam, ACE, SRW, Front Mission.

"journalist" scores are irrelevant. Show me the customer reviews.
